According to Harris County Sheriff Ed Gonzalez, the 18-wheeler was hauling crushed junk vehicles. The sheriff says the trailer flipped, which caused the crushed vehicles to fall off the ramp.

SkyFOX aerials showed the trailer flipped sideways on the ramp, with several crushed vehicles still in the trailer. Crushed vehicles were also removed from underneath the bridge.
